Tenafeate Creek Sangiovese 2023

From a single vineyard. Tenafeate Creek is based in One Tree Hill, just out of greater Adelaide and sits at the edges of the North West corner of the Adelaide Hills and the South West corner of the Barossa and fits into the Mount Lofty Ranges GI. Basket pressed for malolactic fermentation and maturation in new and old oak.

Tenafeate Creek, Sangiovese, Mt Lofty Ranges, 2023

TCWSangiovese

Opaque with garnet rim. Aromas of fresh black and maraschino cherry, tobacco leaf, potpourri, earthen ware, black tea, licorice, cooking chocolate and young kitchen herb blossom. Medium full flesh, slick and smooth cherry and cola with late burst of drying sandy tannins. Pleasantly savoury and herbal finish with dark fruit echoes and a squeeze of juicy, youthful acidity. Ready to go now.
